“Vice Mayor Williams. Thank you, Mayor. The reason why I asked about the employment is because technically, I appreciate Councilwoman Ascudia Brayton and her comments that would be able to help me be able to take this to the next level, and that is because of the fact that You know, we always say jobs, jobs, jobs, bring jobs.
